I failed to state that fact in my post and it is a very good one for everyone doing the Lease Option part of this business to realize.

Thanks Randle

If I sign some up on a L/O how is option consideration taxed? Or is it?
Thanks,
Steve

Steve,
You also have the option of recognizing the income in the year it’s received, regardless of the tenant exercising or expiration. As it’s my belief that I will make more and more money each year, I don’t believe in delaying recognition of the income, so let your particular situation determine the best course of action.

It is not taxed until the “Tenant/ Buyer” exercises his /her option or backs out.
